The Morgan Kaufmann Series in Systems on Silicon Series Editors: Peter Ashenden, Ashenden Designs Pty. Ltd. and Adelaide University, and Wayne Wolf, Princeton University The rapid growth of silicon technology and the demands of applications are increasingly forcing electronics designers to take a systems-oriented approach to design. This has led to new challenges in design methodology, design automation, manufacture and test. The main challenges are to enhance designer productivity and to achieve correctness on the first pass. The Morgan Kaufmann Series in Systems on Silicon presents high quality, peer-reviewed books authored by leading experts in the field who are uniquely qualified to address these issues.
